research SKILL.md skillA

This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.

research from pitimon/8-habit-ai-dev is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add pitimon/8-habit-ai-dev/research@git:20261004.ce92b6f

Pins git:20261004.ce92b6f in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Investigate before specifying — research existing solutions, prior art, and domain constraints. Use BEFORE /requirements when the problem space is unclear. Step 0 of 7-step workflow. Maps to H5 (Seek First to Understand).

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Step 0: Research (ศึกษาก่อนกำหนด)

**Habit**: H5 — Seek First to Understand | **Anti-pattern**: Defining requirements without investigating the problem space

## Before You Start: Is the Problem Statement Fuzzy?

`/research` is **convergent** — it assumes you know what to investigate and produces a research brief with verified sources. If the problem statement itself is still fuzzy (you're not sure what you're really solving, stakeholders disagree, the request is vague), **do not start here**. Invoke `superpowers:brainstorming` from the `claude-plugins-official:superpowers` plugin first — it ships a hard-gate collaborative design session that produces a committed spec document before any research. Come back to `/research` once the problem is crisp.

If you don't have Superpowers installed, proceed here only when the problem is clearly stated — otherwise you risk producing excellent research on the wrong problem. (v2.4.1 removed our own `/brainstorm` skill in favor of Superpowers' stronger equivalent — see ADR-006.)

## Research Depth

Choose the appropriate depth based on the problem complexity. Default is **Standard**.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add pitimon/8-habit-ai-dev/research@sha256:2dcfc925568cb8b6

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261004.ce92b6f, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
